As part of a statistical genetics and experimental genomics research group, my work focuses on developing and applying novel methodologies to gain biological insights into genetic association signals. Specifically, I am involved in several projects to improve genetic fine-mapping for biobank-scale GWAS studies. Ultimately, we plan to test these results using massively parallel reporter assays […]
Nathan Cheng
Nathan is formerly an Associate Computational Biologist working in Hilary Finucane’s lab. He is now a Graduate Student attending Harvard University. He is interested in developing methods for extracting functional information about genes, such as coexpression and coregulation, from gene sequencing data. He is also interested in applying the insights that can be learned from […]
Carlos Albors
Carlos is an Associate Computational Biologist working in Hilary Finucane’s group. He is working on developing fine-mapping methods that account for all of the possible realizations of imputed SNPs, as opposed to just a point estimate. […]
